What is 3×3?

3×3 was developed as part of FIBA’s strategy to make basketball the most popular community sport in the world. FIBA took the fundamental core of basketball and supercharged it with streetball elements to provide a new and exciting platform that connects and engages the urban culture within basketball worldwide as never before.

3×3 was to provide an opportunity to find and tap into the millions of athletes playing unorganised basketball around the world and provide them with an avenue to showcase their skills and a pathway to compete at all levels from grassroots to the world stage.

3×3 is young, urban and with its paired back requirements, unique pathway and ranking system it makes basketball of all levels universally accessible like never before.
